“Energy, talent, personality, and pose were all evident at Chops Lounge on Friday February 2, 2001. Surrounded by his talented band members David Kidd, Max Koteen, and Skye Lewin, Kevin performed upbeat tunes and ballads that drew the crowd into his world. I caught up with him on Friday to ask him some questions about his show.
SB: Why should people come and see you?
KW: Because people need a different type of music.
SB: What is your biggest motivation?
KW: I see myself making it big some day, if I keep working and doing everything I can to be heard.
The song of the night was "Overdue Leases." It took everyone by surprise, creating a silence that caused mixed emotions. It was about the people that have passed away and are very close to Kevin's heart.
Kevin is collaborating the sounds of Indigo Girls and Paula Cole to his work, creating an uplifting listening experience. I suggest for all those that were unable to make it to this past show to check him out at the Youth Hostel (Hemenway and Haviland alongside 1140 Boylston) on Feb. 18 at 8:15. This is a performance that all should check out.”
